She hesitated for a moment, then glanced at Qiu Tu on her lap and said, "You stay tonight."

At this moment, Qiu Tu, who was still enjoying himself lying on Princess Huiming's lap, was suddenly startled and couldn't help but look up at Princess Huiming.

His heterochromatic eyes revealed no emotion; he simply nuzzled Princess Huiming's leg gently and meowed in response.

However, after responding, he did not appear as calm as he had when he lay back down on Princess Huiming's lap.

'You can fall asleep so easily?'

'Isn't this development a bit too fast? Something feels off...'

Qiu Tu's brain raced, and in less than two breaths, he realized that this was likely a trap.

After all... on the way to "Chaotic Western Capital".

Qiu Tu almost fell into Princess Huiming's trap.

After listening to the Cloud Cat God King's story, he continued on his way while also studying the jade box in his arms.

Although he didn't know what was inside the jade box, Qiu Tu was certain that Princess Huiming hadn't lied to him.

That must be something extremely valuable or important. It's very likely related to the secrets of high-ranking god-kings, or even the "undead."

In other words, the contents of that box have a huge impact on the entire situation of the "Ancient Continent".

Therefore, Qiu Tu once considered secretly opening it to see what was inside. If it was truly valuable, he could simply abandon the "Cloud Cat God King" persona.

As it turned out, right after he conceived this idea, a frantic "crisis sense" began to play in front of him.

Judging from the contents of that "crisis sense", once Qiu Tu opens the jade box, regardless of whether he can get anything, Princess Huiming will most likely teleport directly in front of him and twist his head off.

This is the real reason why Qiu Tu didn't dare to touch the jade box along the way.

And we can infer from this small incident.

Tonight, Princess Huiming's decision to keep Qiu Tu at night is definitely not a good thing; it could very well be a trap...

However, now that Princess Huiming has spoken, Qiu Tu has no way to refuse, so he can only agree and take it one step at a time.

Of course, although he knew that tonight would probably be another test, Qiu Tu was not uneasy.

The reason is simple. He believes that after his performance, Princess Huiming has likely minimized his suspicions.

Tonight's probing is most likely the final one.

As long as you don't reveal any weaknesses, you will definitely get through this.

After what just happened, Qiu Tu's understanding of Princess Huiming's personality became more complete.

After a moment's thought, he made another decision.

He lifted his head from Princess Huiming's lap and meowed at her.

Seeing this, Princess Huiming looked down at him and uttered a soft "Hmm?" as a form of inquiry.

Qiu Tu meowed again, then hopped lightly onto Hui Ming's shoulder.

Huiming hesitated for a moment, then guessed what Qiu Tu was going to do.

Sure enough, the next second, Qiu Tu did not hesitate and stretched out his little paws with paw pads and began to rhythmically stomp on her tense shoulders and neck.

Stomp, stomp, stomp...

Not too light, not too heavy; the force was just right.

Hui Ming's shoulders were somewhat thin, and her defined features were evident even through her python robe. This made her resemble a fragile work of art. Therefore, Qiu Tu dared not use too much force when stepping on her.

Meanwhile, on Huiming's side, as Qiu Tu's little hands rhythmically pressed down, a strange sense of comfort spread from her shoulders and neck, easing the tension that had been building up within her....

Chapter 899 The Princess's Soft Embrace (Win an iPad)

Perhaps it's because he's spent so much time with Zhao Ji, but Qiu Tu has now developed a bit of the ability to sense other people's emotions.

Therefore, although Princess Huiming did not say a word, Qiu Tu could sense that she was much more relaxed and at ease than when he first met her.

This made him massage even harder.

"Tap... tap... tap..."

The white cat's little paws rhythmically tapped on Princess Huiming's shoulder, appearing exceptionally energetic and adorable.

Perhaps Qiu Tu's massage was indeed very comfortable, because Princess Huiming slowly leaned back in the chair, enjoying Qiu Tu's massage.

And so, time flowed slowly in the quiet moments between the person and the cat.

After an unknown amount of time, just as Qiu Tu felt he was gradually gaining the trust of Princess Huiming.

Suddenly, Princess Huiming closed her eyes and asked, "Cloud Cat, your massage skills seem to have improved a lot all of a sudden?"

Before coming to see Princess Huiming, Qiu Tu had considered many scenarios and possibilities, but he never imagined that he would be suspected because of the difference in massage techniques.

Qiu Tu even suspected that this might not be a suspicion at all, but rather a temporary test.

So, without hesitation, he used one of the trump cards he had prepared on the way: switching to Cloud Cat God King mode.

The next second, in the "Punishment God Realm," the Cloud Cat God King, locked in a cage, raised his hand like a cat, waved cutely, and playfully meowed, peeking out and asking, "Is there?"

In the real world, Qiu Tu's heterochromatic eyes were slightly unfocused, and then his movements became exactly the same as the Cloud Cat God King in "Punishment God Realm". He waved cutely, meowed playfully, and poked his head out, asking, "Is there?"

Hearing the same answer from "Cloud Cat God King" that was no different from usual, Princess Huiming fell silent again.

As a result, at this moment, Qiu Tu and the Cloud Cat God King in the "Punishment God Realm" simultaneously and gently hugged Hui Ming's neck, then leaned forward and asked, "Your Highness~ you seem a little strange."

He tilted his head slightly. "When you suddenly appeared in my body, I felt something was off."

"After seeing you today, that feeling that something was off has only intensified."

Qiu Tu's voice overlapped with that of the Cloud Cat God King from "The Realm of Punishment".

"Now... how come you don't even seem to remember the pressure I used when I massaged you?"

Hearing Qiu Tu's unremarkable reply, the God King Huiming remained silent for a moment before closing his eyes and softly saying, "I have indeed been quite tired lately. There have been a lot of things to do."

Upon hearing Princess Huiming's words, Qiu Tu and the Cloud Cat God King, though in different spaces, spoke in unison with synchronized expressions, "That's alright. With me here, all fatigue will vanish without a trace."

"Your Highness has forgotten, I am your most powerful little cloud cat~"

"With me here, everything will be fine."

As he spoke, Qiu Tu leaned on Princess Huiming's shoulder again and began to stomp on the ground.

Princess Huiming: ....

If the previous "Cloud Cat God King" was somewhat unnatural and different from the "Cloud Cat God King" she knew before... then the current "Cloud Cat God King," Princess Huiming, feels flawless.

Those few words, expressions, actions, and habits were all exactly the same as those in Princess Huiming's memory, without the slightest flaw.

Even Princess Huiming's intuition no longer sounded any warnings.

'Am I really overthinking things...?'

'Or...what methods did he use?'

Thinking this, Princess Huiming scanned the white cat diligently treading on her shoulder with her spiritual power...

The next second, Princess Huiming activated her mental power, and the white cat's entire body was suddenly bound.

At that moment, Princess Huiming carefully observed every single reaction of the white cat's body.

If the white cat in front of him is indeed an enemy in disguise, then when he suddenly makes a move, the cat will definitely become tense or wary because it cannot fully trust him.

Even if the enemy is a true genius spy, and relaxes instantly in the next instant, the physical changes cannot be faked.

For a high-level god-king like himself, even millisecond-level changes can be detected, and any anomalies can be clearly discerned.

At the same time, just as Huiming was thinking this and making his move...

Qiu Tu and the Cloud Cat God King in the "Punishment God Realm" were both momentarily stunned, and then a look of confusion appeared on their cute cat faces, clearly not knowing what had happened.

However... because Qiu Tu was completely synchronized with the Cloud Cat God King's current state, his body was not tense at all, but rather extremely relaxed.

Every expression and every change in his demeanor was keenly captured by the Radiant Princess, whose spiritual power meticulously observed him.

'Nothing unusual?'

When the verification results were presented to her, even with Princess Huiming's composure, she couldn't help but frown slightly, clearly finding the result somewhat hard to believe.

However, she reacted very quickly, knowing that whether she believed it or not, she had to keep playing her part.

So... she reached out and pulled Qiu Tu, who was bound to her by her mental power, into her arms. Then she gently scratched his chin with her fingertips.

"You're so kind. Take a rest." Her voice was still calm, but it had a touch more warmth.

As royalty, they are born to receive offerings from countless "paths of destruction" of deities, and the word "thank you" is not in their vocabulary.

Being able to say "Thank you for your thoughtfulness, take a rest" is already a rare form of recognition for a subordinate.

So, Qiu Tu, who was being held in Hui Ming's arms, couldn't help but meow in response, and even stuck out his tongue to lick her jade-like fingertips.

In that instant, Princess Huiming's fingertips trembled slightly, as if she had been burned, and she withdrew them. A rare, faint blush appeared on her snow-white cheeks, and a hint of embarrassment and annoyance flashed in her eyes.

Although her micro-expressions were fleeting, Qiu Tu still managed to capture them keenly.

'So this princess is so innocent? She's even shy when a kitten licks her fingers?' Qiu Tu continued to synchronize with the Cloud Cat God King's movements, while also feeling a little surprised.

However, what he didn't know was that Huiming was also somewhat surprised at this moment...

The reason is simple... In fact, Cloud Cat God King had done the same thing to her before.

At that time, she felt something was a little strange, but she didn't really feel anything else.

But tonight was clearly different.

The kitten in his arms clearly looked like the Cloud Cat God King, felt like the Cloud Cat God King, and its expression, movements, and reactions were all those of the Cloud Cat God King. But the moment it licked him, his body felt like it had been electrocuted, completely different from before!

What exactly happened?

Princess Huiming, whose doubts had almost been dispelled by the reason, couldn't help but have many questions arise again.

As she thought about this, her mind kept shifting. After a moment, she hugged Qiu Tu and then spoke authoritatively, "Ruolan."

"Your Highness."

As the response came, a figure silently appeared beside the tent flap; it was the female official who had stepped down earlier.

She bowed slightly, and Ruolan's gaze swept imperceptibly over the adorable white cat in Huiming's arms, her movements pausing for a fleeting, almost imperceptible moment.

While patting Qiu Tu's back, Hui Ming casually instructed, "Go and prepare. I'll be sleeping in the tent tonight."

Upon hearing this, Ruolan was startled, but her expression remained unchanged. She quickly and respectfully replied, "Yes."

After speaking, she bowed again and then quietly retreated, her movements showing more caution than when she arrived.

As she stepped out of the tent, she glanced back. Through the gap in the tent flap, she could only see the back of Princess Huiming, still sitting upright, and the snow-white figure nestled in her arms.

Inside the tent, Qiu Tu nestled in Princess Huiming's arms, and with a glance up or a twitch of his ear, he could touch her high, soft breasts.

Even to avoid arousing suspicion, he could not make any moves and could only synchronize with the Cloud Cat God King.

However, even as the Cloud Cat God King was being affectionate, he could still clearly feel the warm, elastic texture through the fabric.

'This is a bit erotic, but... being able to touch but not feel is just too painful! It's like being tortured!'

'And...it seems like Huiming really is going to ask me to stay the night and share a bed with him?'

'This...it's exciting, but the risks are way too high, aren't they?'

'It's quite a challenge to exercise self-control!'

At this moment, Qiu Tu especially wished that Zhao Ji was here as well.

It wasn't that he wanted to kill two birds with one stone, but... looking at Zhao Ji's icy gaze, he could also cool down quite a bit.

After all... he didn't believe Hui Ming would trust him so easily. Tonight, there would definitely be even deeper tests waiting for him.

He must be extremely cautious.

Soon, as Qiu Tu was thinking this, the female official Ruolan led two maids back into the tent.

They moved swiftly yet silently, first erecting a screen painted with landscape ink paintings in the center of the tent, dividing the huge tent into inner and outer sections.

Afterwards, a large and soft bed was laid out in the inner tent, clean bedding was changed, and a censer with a calming effect was lit.
